Hi everyone. I'm still here, but I have to use our W98 computer now to reply. I've been playing the game on my W95 machine, but when I'm browsing the posts here at Gameboomers the machine is locking up on me. I'll need to use this other computer to talk to you. So if you don't hear from me it means this better machine is tied up with other people in my family and I need to wait until it's free.

I'm fighting my way through Snergles Iron Mines and those little dwarves are tough cookies.

Missed you thought I was all alone...I visited that location, on one of my nosey trips..and yep those little guys are mean..I got out...think hightailed and that worked for me.. Right now we rescued a Damsel in distress, which really was a lot of fun.lost the prince..need to find the guy that'll buy the church gongs in free haven and syd gave me Free Soap for my preception expert..but I couldn't get any of the 3 folks in there to offer me training ...maybe they think I'm kidding..

I have been a devotee of M+M since they first came out - never has there been something quite like them. I am so thrilled to once again be playing them - and once again it is easy to become so immersed that time flies by...

The gong guy is really close by to the fountain where you arrive via town portal.

We're just moving right along...got the harp..finally, that place was a real maze, also got the scroll that satisfied the mayor of New Soap..We're at level 17 right now..accidently stepped on I guess teleporter in front of the Castle and wham, in a battle with the Baa guys and those big turtles geez..killed a bunch and they kept coming..got some more $$$ so we're a happy little group..my wizard is really getting good..nice spells love that ring of fire..I can't remember what's next, something I think about Bootleg..not sure we're ready for that area, but we'll take a peek and see..

Yep those teleporters sure surprise you the first time you use them but they bring you to the North West area of the map so once you clean them out in that area you can save a lot of walking to get there.

Sounds like you are doing great Ingie and it only gets better as they get stronger.

I couldn't figure out if this is always a spot where you could never clean it out..like a "real live training program" . Glad to know that's not it.

It was about as surprising as my first look at the cannibals and werewolves...only these guys I can kill...

Does anyone know...the Town Portal gal..little places don't seem to show up...like Castle Temper(or whatever)had to use the paper map and still not sure where the dragoon hidey hole is..every time I look the game wants to take me to Bootleg Bay...This game is great..I am so grateful for the person that found those downloads and for Nickie encouraging me to hold onto them <img border="0" alt="[Christmas]" title="" src="graemlins/Christmas.gif" />

We killed our first dragon last night He was lurking in the Temple of the Snake in Blackshire - he sorta got stuck by a wall and couldn't do any damage to us so my little group just kept plugging away at him with arrows and the blades spell. Took about 10 minutes (he's a strong sucker) but we finally nailed him

I can only please one person a day. Today isn't your day. Tomorrow's not looking good either.

Nickie, I've only played the first LOL, Throne of Chaos. I have 2 & 3, but have never actually got fully into them. Something always seemed to get in the way, but they're on my shelf and will be attended to soon, I hope. Lands of lore was an epic game, and I've played it 8 times. I've never had Darklands.
